General
What is Keepsake exactly?
Keepsake is your personal CRM — a private space to organize your relationships, notes, and tasks. Unlike traditional CRMs designed for sales teams, Keepsake is built for individuals who want to nurture their personal and professional relationships. Think of it as your relational memory: everything connected to the people who matter to you.
Learn moreWho is Keepsake for?
Keepsake is perfect for anyone who values their relationships: freelancers, consultants, entrepreneurs, community managers, or simply people who want to remember important details about the people in their lives. If you've ever forgotten a birthday, lost track of a conversation, or wished you had a better system to stay in touch — Keepsake is for you.
Is there a free trial?
Yes! You get 7 days of free trial with full access to all features. No credit card required to start. After the trial, you can choose the plan that fits your needs.
Features
Does Keepsake work offline?
Yes! Keepsake works offline. You can capture notes, create tasks, and browse your contacts even without an internet connection. Your changes will sync automatically when you're back online. This is especially useful for QuickNotes — capture your ideas anywhere, anytime.
Learn moreHow do I link a note to a contact?
Simply type @ followed by the contact's name anywhere in your note. For example: "Had coffee with @John, discussed the project." The note will automatically appear in John's profile, creating a complete history of your interactions.
Learn moreWhat are Time Blocks and how do they work?
Time Blocks are Keepsake's unique approach to task management. Instead of scheduling tasks at specific times (like a calendar), you organize them in sequence — one after another. If you finish early, you're free. If it takes longer, the next block simply moves. No guilt, no rescheduling chaos. It's flexible productivity that adapts to real life.
Learn moreCan I link tasks to specific contacts?
Absolutely! Just mention a contact with @ in your task description, and it will appear in that contact's profile. For example: "Follow up with @Marie about the proposal" — this task shows up in your day view AND in Marie's profile, giving you full context of what you need to do with each person.
Learn moreWhat happens to unfinished tasks at the end of the day?
Keepsake doesn't shame you for unfinished tasks! You can easily reschedule them to tomorrow, another date, or mark them for 'someday'. The philosophy is simple: life happens, and your task manager should work with you, not against you.
